1. Does this tablet have a built-in microphone or do you have to purchase an external mic?2. Does it have a keyboard dock you can buy seperately?

1. It has a built-in Mic, Speaker, and Camera. I use it for Skype all the time.2. The dock is sold separately. I use a cheap wireless Logitech keyboard with a receiver that plugs into the USB port.

I do not know about the mic but it probably does. You can purchase a separate docking station which has two additional usb ports, a network port and I believe a hdmi port(it is at my office so I can't verify hdmi) Thus you can easily plug usb keyboard and mice to the tablet.

I have read everything I can find about this tablet and have not seen any info about a dock. (or any accessories for that matter) According to the manual, it will come with a usb adapter for the mini-usb port. I believe you could use a traditional USB keyboard with the adapter. I have one pre-ordered, unless I change my mind before they release it (could they be more vague on the date?!) and intend to get a bluetooth keyboard to go with it. Here's a link to the manual if you haven't seen it: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Document/User%20Manual/User%20Manual_Acer_1.0_A_A.zip?acerid=634685991372961583&Step1=Tablet&Step2=ICONIA%20TAB&Step3=A510&OS=a09&LC=en&BC=Acer&SC=PA_6

Hi Chris. Excellent question. It does have an on screen keyboard. You can use fingertips or a stylus. OR, you can buy a nice bluetooth keyboard for very little money. Bluetooth link, no wires, and you're typing on regular keys. If you go with Bluetooth keyboard you'll want a little stand for the tablet. Actually when I bought my tablet, Amazon was selling the perfect accessory kit for it. you get a little stand, a Bluetooth keyboard, a leather case, and even a screen protector. If you want more information about those accessories let me know and I'll be glad to look it up for you. I hope this helps. Hi Chris. Excellent question. It does have an on screen keyboard.

I purchased the ASUS Infinity TF700 and it does not come with the Mobile Dock. At first I was disappointed and promised myself to buy it, but after using my tablet for a while, I'm not even going buy it.

It has a built-in Mic, but placement is key. I have it on my dash but have to speak fairly loud. The calls ring through the speakers and the on-screen display allows you to answer or ignore. I however have an android and not iOS, but there are specific options for Apple-based products. Hope this helps!

Yes external keyboard is compatible but it must has USB cable, as this tablet cannot work with bluetooth.

I talked to a guy at MacMall and he told me that it included the dock and keyboard, but it was $1,500+. I emailed Amazon last night with the same question. I'll update my post it I hear anything from them.***Amazon customer service says they don't know either. They told me I could order and send it back if it's not what I wanted.***

It includes a keyboard, with a usb plug. You will need an adapter to use this with a tablet.

No, you have to buy the keyboard separately. Also, there's a newer version of this tablet (the ASUS T200), that is better, faster, and comes with a keyboard! I would recommend getting that instead.

I ended up not buying the A2109 but remember reading in some of the reviews that you can buy a USB to host adapter or something like that which will let you plug up the external keyboard. It would take time, but I would recommend reading in depth the reviews of this product on Amazon as some of the folks have pretty detailed comments. It may would give you other ideas also. Hope you enjoy your tablet. Have a good day.

the kick stand with keyboard that i reviewed comes with a standard usb connection...the tablet came with an accessory that took the kickstand connection with the standard usb port to a smaller usb port on the tablet..was a hassle because extra attachment did not fit in the kickstand..mine eventually broke. hope that helps.?

The keyboard must be plugged into the tablet to work and not wireless. There is another option though and pretty cheap. Since the keyboard has a USB port you can get any Logitech wireless keyboard that comes with their dongle and use that keyboard. I have a Logitech keyboard that has both the keyboard AND the finger pad and mouse keys just like a normal laptop has so you don't need a seperate kb and mouse. That was about $30 at Walmart. You can plug the dongle into any device that uses USB....I also use it with my regular laptop (Windows) and even my Samsung smart TV (computer built in) for remote keyboard. Note though that on the ASUS there is not a USB port on the tablet itself only the keyboard so you still need both the tablet and its docking keyboard. That being said....the ASUS kb is excellent....in fact that is what I am using right now to reply to you.

It has a large usb connection to the keyboard. If you have a tablet that has a mini usb connection, let the seller know.

Microphone built in. The adapter is USB with an AC plug in that connects to the USB. Useful too for cell phones. Get an owners manual, and the tablet. I got buds, but not very good. Remember this think thinks its a cell phone. Try a cell phone ear dongle :)

No, there wasn't a microphone. I would still recommend the keyboard. My kids have a great time learning to play along with the songs.

I bought it for my uncle so I don't know much about it but I know the keyboard case does work with the tablet. The keyboard case is regular USB, and also comes with a converter cable to the smaller USB size for the tablet. I think the tablet uses a micro usb slot, but it might have been mini usb, I can't remember. Probably micro though. My uncle is pretty happy with the tablet. Its decent for its price.
